FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Statements contained in this Report that are not historical facts or that discuss
our expectations, beliefs or views regarding our future operations or future financial performance, or financial or other trends in our business or markets, constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the 1934 Act). Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate
strictly to historical or current facts. Often, they include the words believe, expect, anticipate, intend, plan, estimate, project, or words of similar meaning, or
future or conditional verbs such as will, would, should, could, or may. Forward-looking statements are based on current information and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties
that could cause our financial condition or operating results in the future to differ, possibly significantly, from those expected at the current time. Those risks and uncertainties are described in Item 1A in Part I of this Report in the
Section entitled RISK FACTORS and readers of this Report are urged to read the cautionary statements contained in that Section of this Report.

Due to these uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in this Report, which speak only as of the date of this Annual Report. We undertake no
obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

California, Texas, Oregon, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, Indiana, Pennsylvania, New York, Georgia, Florida and Wisconsin and 4 regional distribution centers in Canada located, respectively, in Montreal, Toronto, Calgary and Vancouver. Reference is made
to Note G to our Consolidated Financial Statements, contained in Item 8 of this Report, for certain information regarding the respective operating results of the Companys operations in the United States and Canada. Our customers are
comprised primarily of RV and boat dealers and RV and boating parts supply stores and service centers (After-Market Customers), which resell the products they purchase from us, at retail, to consumers that own or use RVs or boats.

We have introduced into the marketplace a number of products that have been designed specifically for us by independent product design
firms or product manufacturers and are manufactured for us, generally on an exclusive basis, by a number of different independent manufacturers (proprietary products or Coast-Branded Products). We market our proprietary
products under our own brand-names in competition with products from traditional suppliers of RV and boating parts, supplies and accessories. We are able to obtain the proprietary products at prices that generally are below those we would have to
pay for those competing products. For additional information regarding our proprietary products, see ProductsProprietary Products Strategy and Sales below.

In the latter part of 2005, Coast began marketing and selling standby and portable gasoline inverter and diesel generators, manufactured by Wuxi Kipor
Power Co., Ltd. (Kipor), which is the largest manufacturer in China of inverter generators for export. In April 2006, Coast and Kipor entered into an agreement appointing Coast as the sole distributor of Kipors products in the
Continental United States, Canada and Mexico. Although, initially, we sold these power generator products primarily to customers in our traditional RV and boating markets, we have recently begun selling those products in the outdoor power equipment
market, as well, primarily to dealers that resell the products, at retail, to building contractors, agricultural and other businesses and consumers. See Products  Kipor Generator Products below for additional information
regarding the Kipor Agreement and the products that we sell pursuant to that Agreement.

We use a computer-based order entry and warehousing system which enables customers to transmit orders
either telephonically or electronically to us, and enables us to prepare and invoice most orders within 24 hours of receipt. We also have established a national customer service center to enable customers to obtain product information and place
orders by telephone using Company toll-free telephone numbers. We believe that the breadth of our product lines, the proprietary products we are able to offer to our customers, the computer integration of our operations, and our inventory deployment
system distinguishes us from other distributors of RV and boating parts, supplies and accessories.

The Company was incorporated in
California in June 1977, and reincorporated in Delaware in April 1998. For convenience, we will refer to The Coast Distribution System, Inc. in this Report as we or us or the Company.

The RV and Boating Parts, Supplies and Accessories After-Markets

Many manufacturers of RV and boating replacement parts, supplies and accessories rely on independent distributors, such as the Company, to market and distribute their products or to augment their own product
distribution operations. Distributors relieve manufacturers of a portion of the costs associated with distribution of their products while providing geographically dispersed selling, order processing and delivery capabilities. At the same time,
distributors offer retailers access to a broad line of products and the convenience of rapid delivery of orders which reduces the amount of product inventories that retailers must carry and, therefore, their costs of operations.

The market for RV parts, supplies and accessories distributed by the Company is comprised of both RV dealers and RV supply stores and service centers.
The RV products that we sell include optional equipment and accessories, such as trailer hitches, air conditioning units, water heaters and other accessories, and replacement and repair parts and maintenance supplies. The market for boating parts,
supplies and accessories is comprised primarily of independent boat dealers that sell boats and boating parts, supplies and accessories at retail. Independent boat dealers primarily purchase replacement parts, boating supplies and smaller
accessories from the Company. See BUSINESS  Products.

Products

General. We carry a full line of more than 15,000 RV and boating parts, supplies and accessories which we purchase from more than 500
manufacturers. The RV products that we distribute include antennae, vents, electrical items, towing equipment and hitches, appliances such as air conditioners, refrigerators, ranges and generators, LP gas equipment, portable toilets and plumbing
parts, hardware and tools, specialized recreational vehicle housewares, chemicals and supplies, and various accessories, such as ladders, jacks, fans, load stabilizers, outdoor furniture, mirrors and compressors. Boating and marine products that we
distribute include boat covers, stainless steel hardware, depth sounders, anchors, life jackets and other marine safety equipment and fishing equipment that are designed primarily for use on trailer-towable boats.

Proprietary Products Strategy and Sales. We have introduced into the RV and boating aftermarkets a growing number of proprietary products, which
are products that are manufactured specifically for us, often on an exclusive basis, by a number of different independent manufacturers, based primarily in China and other countries in Asia. The proprietary products primarily include products that
are needed or used by RV and boating customers on a regular or recurring basis, such as trailer hitches, plastic wastewater tanks, vent lids, stabilizing jacks and battery boxes. These products have been designed for us by independent professional
product design firms or by the independent manufacturers that we have retained to manufacture the products for us. We market these proprietary products under our own brand-names in competition with brand name products from traditional suppliers,
which usually sell their products to a number of different distributors and sometimes into other markets.

Generally, the costs to us of
purchasing proprietary products are lower than the costs of purchasing competitive products from traditional suppliers based in the United States. As a result, our proprietary products strategy has enabled us, over the years, to offer our customers
more competitively-priced products without compromising quality, and at the same time has enabled us to increase our gross profit margins. We believe, moreover, that our Coast-branded proprietary products are gaining greater acceptance among users
of RVs and boats. However, the costs of marketing our proprietary products generally are greater than for established brand-name products, which can offset some of the margin advantage we gain on sales of those products. See MANAGEMENTS
DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS below in Part II of this Report.

##### Table of Contents

During the past several years we have begun to source from overseas manufacturers, and market and sell in
the United States and Canada, products that have applications not only in the RV and boating markets, but also in other markets. We intend to continue our efforts to source additional products from independent manufacturers, primarily in China, that
we can sell into other markets in the United States and Canada, in order to increase our sales and gross margins and reduce our dependence on the RV and boating markets. It is too early to predict if this strategy will prove to be successful. Among
other things, if we do introduce products into new markets, we are likely to face competition in those markets from manufacturers and distributors of competing products. Some of those manufacturers and distributors will be larger and will have more
marketing and capital resources than we do and will be better known in those markets than we are. Additionally, we expect that it will be necessary for us to assume primary responsibility for marketing these products to consumers, rather than being
able to rely on marketing programs conducted by established domestic manufacturers.

Kipor Generator Products. In the latter part of
2005 we began importing, for resale in our markets, standby and portable gasoline invertor and diesel generators manufactured by Wuxi Kipor Power Co., Ltd. (Kipor), which is the largest manufacturer in China of inverter generators for
export. In April 2006, we entered into a Sole Sales and Service Agreement with Kipor (the Kipor Agreement), which appoints Coast as the sole distributor of Kipors products in the North America, which is defined in the Agreement to
include the Continental United States, Canada and Mexico. The Kipor products covered by the Agreement include gasoline inverter generators; diesel generators, including Kipors diesel Super-Silent generators; converter generators; diesel and
gasoline engines; and water pumps. Under the Agreement, Coast (i) is responsible for marketing, and is obligated to use its best efforts to maximize sales of, Kipor products in North America, and (ii) is responsible for providing, or
arranging for the provision, of warranty and repair services for Kipor products sold in North America, the costs of which are partially shared by Kipor.

Initially, we began selling Kipor generator products primarily to Aftermarket customers in the RV and boating markets, because consumers that own and use RVs and boats often purchase portable generators for use when
traveling or using their RVs or boats. More recently, we began marketing and selling Kipor generator products into the outdoor power equipment market, which is comprised of outdoor power equipment specialists, lawn and garden equipment outlets,
contractor supply outlets, home improvement and hardware stores, and agricultural equipment outlets.

Sales of Kipor generators accounted
for approximately 8.0%, 8.1% and 1.5% of our net sales in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. We expect that our sales of Kipor generator products will increase in 2008, as compared to 2007. However, we also expect that any increase in the sale of
Kipor generators will result in an increase in our operating costs, because we are responsible for marketing, and for providing or arranging for warranty and repair services for, the Kipor products that we sell.

Marketing and Sales

Our Customers. Our
customers include primarily (i) RV dealers, which purchase optional equipment and accessories for new recreational vehicles and replacement and repair parts for their service departments, (ii) independent RV supply stores and service
centers that purchase parts, supplies and accessories for resale to owners of RVs and for their service centers, and (iii) independent boat dealers that purchase small accessories for new boats and replacement parts and boating supplies for
resale to boat owners and operators. We are not dependent on any single customer for any material portion of our business and no single customer accounted for as much as 5% of our sales in 2007,2006 or 2005.

As described above in our discussion of our proprietary products strategy, we have begun to market and sell Kipor generator products and certain other of
our proprietary products to home improvement and home accessories chains, specialty catalogue companies, outdoor power equipment specialists, lawn and garden equipment outlets, contractor supply outlets, hardware stores, and agricultural equipment
outlets. However, to date, our sales to those customers have not been material in relation to our sales of such products to RV and boating After-Market customers and there is no assurance that we will be successful in generating significant sales to
those new customers.

Our Customer Service Center and Computerized Order Entry and Warehousing System. We have designed and
implemented a computer-based order entry and warehousing system which enables our customers to transmit orders electronically to our central computers and also enables us, subject to product availability, to prepare and invoice most customer orders
within 24 hours of receipt.

##### Table of Contents

We also operate national customer sales and service centers through which our customers can obtain
product information and place orders by telephone using our toll-free telephone numbers. Our customer sales and service centers are staffed by sales personnel who are trained to promote the sale of our products and to handle customer service issues.

Orders transmitted by customers either electronically, or via telephone to the national customer sales and service center, are input into
our computer system and then are electronically transmitted to the regional distribution center selected by the customer, where the products are picked, packed and shipped. At the time the order is received, the customer is informed, either by
electronic confirmation, or by the sales person handling the customers call at the customer service center, that the order has been accepted and whether any items are not currently in stock.

Annual Dealer Buying Show. Each year, in February, we host our annual dealer buying show, in Las Vegas Nevada, for our customers. At these shows,
we display and sell thousands of the products we distribute, including products from 200 of our independent suppliers and our Coast-branded proprietary products. Representatives from almost 700 of our U.S. and Canadian customers attended our 2008
dealer buying show. Since consumers typically increase their purchases of RV and boating products in the early spring, to facilitate sales of products at our dealer buying show we offer our creditworthy customers extended payment terms that allow
them to purchase products at the show and defer their payments to us for those products until the spring.

Distribution

General. Our regional distribution and warehouse centers in North America carry an inventory of up to approximately 15,000 RV and boating parts,
supplies and accessories, although the nature and number of products at each distribution and warehouse center does vary, based primarily on their historical product sales to customers in their regions. We rely on independent freight companies to
ship our products to our customers.

We have implemented an inventory management and deployment system that we designed to improve our
ability to fill customer orders from the distribution centers closest to the customer and, thereby, improve our responsiveness to the customer and at the same time reduce our costs of service. We track product sales from each of our distribution and
warehouse centers and stock at each such center only the products which are in relatively high demand from customers in the region serviced by that distribution center. At the same time we offer our customers a split shipment program by
which we ship products that are not available at the Companys distribution center closest to the customer from the next closest of the Companys distribution centers which stocks those products. This split shipment program reduces
back-orders that could adversely affect service levels to our customers and, at the same time, reduces our costs because it eliminates the need to stock duplicative products at all of our warehouses.

Arrangements with Manufacturers

General. The
products we distribute are purchased from more than 500 different manufacturers. As is typical in the industry, in most instances we acquire those products on a purchase order basis and we have no long term supply contracts or guaranteed price or
delivery agreements with manufacturers, including the manufacturers that produce proprietary products for us. As a result, short-term inventory shortages can occur. We sometimes choose to carry only a single manufacturers products for certain
of the brand-name product lines that we sell, although comparable products usually are available from multiple sources. In addition, we typically obtain each of our proprietary products from a single source manufacturer, although in most instances
we own the tooling required for their manufacture.

Dependence on a single manufacturer for any product or line of related products,
however, presents some risks, including the risk that we will be unable to readily obtain products from alternative suppliers in the event that a single source supplier encounters production problems or decides either to enter into an exclusive
supply arrangement or alliance with a competing distributor or to vertically integrate its operations to include the distribution of its products. Termination of a single source supply relationship could adversely affect our sales and operating
income, possibly to a significant extent. See Risk Factors in Item 1A of this Report.

We pay for the products that we
purchase from foreign suppliers in U.S. Dollars and, therefore, such purchases do not expose us to currency exchange risks. However, due to the weakening of the U.S. Dollar in relation to foreign currencies, some our suppliers have begun
increasing the prices they charge for their products.

Product
Warranties and Product Liability Insurance. We generally do not independently warrant the products that we distribute and sell. Instead, the manufacturers generally warrant those products and allow us to return defective products, including
those that have been returned to us by our customers. In the last quarter of 2005, we began selling a line of Kipor portable and standby generators under a product supply arrangement with Kipor which provides for us to share in the costs of
providing warranty services for these products. The warranty period is 24 months following the sale of a Kipor generator to a retail customer. In 2005, we did not have sufficient experience with these products to be able to accurately predict the
warranty costs that we might incur under this arrangement and, as a result, we had not yet established any reserves for such costs or for possible warranty claims that might have been made with respect to these products. By the fourth quarter of
2006, we had obtained sufficient experience with respect to the types and costs of warranty claims typically associated with those products and, as a result, were able to make what we believe are reasonable estimates of future claims on the products
as they are sold. Accordingly, at December 31, 2007 and 2006, we had established reserves of $553,000 and $418,000, respectively, for potential warranty claims with respect to those products. However, there is no assurance that warranty claims
in the future will not exceed these amounts.

We do maintain insurance to protect us against product liability claims relating to all of
the products we distribute and sell. Additionally, we often are able to obtain indemnification agreements from our product suppliers to protect us against product liability claims that may arise out of the use of the products they manufacture and
supply to us for resale.

Competition

We face significant competition. There are a number of national and regional distributors of RV and boating parts, supplies and accessories that compete with us. There also are mass merchandisers, web retailers, catalog houses and national
and regional retail chains specializing in the sale of RV or boating parts, supplies and accessories that purchase such products directly from manufacturers. The mass merchandisers, web retailers, and national and regional chains compete directly
with the RV and boating supply stores and service centers that purchase products from us. This competition affects both the volume of our sales and the prices we are able to charge our customers for those products. Additionally, there is no
assurance that changes in supply relationships or new alliances within the RV or boating products industry will not occur that would further increase competition.

We compete on the basis of the quality, speed and reliability of our service, the breadth of our product lines and on price. We believe that we are highly competitive in each of those areas.

As discussed earlier in this Report, we have recently begun selling a line of portable generators, not only in the RV and boating markets, but also in
other markets in which we have not previously sold products. We also intend to seek additional products that we can source from overseas suppliers for resale into other markets in the United States and Canada. We expect to encounter intensive
competition from manufacturers and distributors of competing products in those other markets. Many of those companies will be larger and have greater marketing and financial resources than we do and are likely to be better known in these markets
than we are. Therefore, there is no assurance that we will be successful in competing against those companies.

At December 31, 2007, we had approximately 405 full-time employees, which include employees in Canada. During the peak summer months, we also employ part-time workers at our regional distribution and warehouse centers. None of our
employees is represented by a labor union and we believe that relations with our employees are good.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Statements contained in this Annual Report that are not historical facts or that
discuss our expectations regarding our future operations or future financial performance or trends in our business constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are estimates or predictions about our future financial
performance or future financial condition, or are statements about financial or market trends that may affect our future results of operations. Such statements are based on current information and our business is subject to a number of risks and
uncertainties that could cause our actual operating results or our financial performance or condition in future periods to differ, possibly significantly, from our current expectations and beliefs that are set forth in the forward looking statements
contained in this report. Those risks and uncertainties include, although they are not limited to, the following:

Our Business is
Seasonal and is Subject to Various Economic and Climatic Influences.

Our sales are affected directly by the purchase and usage levels
of RVs and boats. The purchase and usage of RVs and boats are affected by consumers level of discretionary income and their confidence about economic conditions; the availability and prices of gasoline; prevailing interest rates; and weather
conditions. As a result, our future sales and earnings can be, and in the past have been, adversely affected by the following:



| |  |  | Loss of confidence among consumers regarding economic conditions and the onset of adverse economic conditions, which cause consumers to reduce their purchases and
usage of RVs and boats;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Increases in the prices and shortages in the supply of gasoline, which increase the cost of using and, therefore, the willingness of consumers to purchase and use
RVs and boats;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Increases in interest rates which affect the availability and affordability of financing for the purchase of RVs and boats and RV and boating accessories;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Unusually severe or extended winter weather conditions, which can reduce the usage of RVs and boats for periods extending beyond the ordinary winter months or to
regions that ordinarily encounter milder winter weather conditions and which cause period-to-period fluctuations in our sales and financial performance.
| | - |  | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

These conditions also often lead to increased price competition in our markets which could force us to reduce our prices, thereby reducing sales revenue and our gross profit margins and earnings.

For a discussion of how these factors affected our results of operation in 2007, see MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS below, in Part II of this Report.

Reliance on Sole Sources of Supply for Certain of our
Products.

We sometimes choose to carry only a single manufacturers products for certain of the third party brand-name
product lines that we sell. In addition, we obtain each of our proprietary products from a single source manufacturer, although in many instances we own the tooling required for their manufacture. Dependence on a single manufacturer for any product
or line of related products, however, presents some risks, including the risk that we will be unable to



6



---

##### Table of Contents

readily obtain alternative product supply sources in the event that a single source supplier (i) encounters quality or other manufacturing problems, or
(ii) decides to enter into an exclusive supply arrangement or alliance with a competing distributor, or to vertically integrate its operations to include not only manufacturing, but also distribution, of its products. If any of our single
source suppliers were to encounter any manufacturing problems or disruptions or terminate our supply relationship, our sales and earnings could decline, possibly to a significant extent.

The Effects of Possible Changes in Supply Relationships in Our Markets.

As is the customary practice in our markets, in most instances we do not have long term supply contracts with our product suppliers. As a result, product
suppliers are free to change the terms on which they sell us products or to discontinue supplying us with products altogether, because they may choose to distribute their products directly to after-market dealers or because they might choose to
establish exclusive supply relationships with other distributors. Additionally, manufacturers of new RVs and boats may choose to incorporate optional equipment on their RVs and boats at the time of manufacture that, historically were provided to
their dealers by distributors such as the Company. Any of these occurrences could result in increased competition in our markets or could reduce the number of products we are able to offer our customers, which could cause our sales to decline and
could result in lower margins and in reduced earnings.

We Rely Heavily on Bank Borrowings in the Operation of our Business.

We rely heavily on bank borrowings to fund our working capital requirements and capital expenditures. Our outstanding borrowings create
additional risks for our business. Among other things, we may find it more difficult to obtain additional financing to fund expansion or take advantage of other business opportunities, and we use a substantial portion of our cash flow from
operations to pay the principal of and interest on our debt. Our existing debt also makes us more vulnerable to general economic downturns and competitive pressures, which could cause us to fail to meet financial covenants in our bank loan agreement
and, as discussed in the Section of this Report entitled MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS, the interest we have to pay on such debt impacts our operating results.

Risks Related to New Proprietary Products Strategy.

We have begun sourcing and buying from overseas manufacturers and marketing and selling new products, such as portable and standby generators, into new markets. We do not have the same level of experience in those
markets and there is no assurance that these products will gain acceptance among customers in those markets. We also expect to encounter stiff competition from companies that manufacture or market competing products for those same markets. We expect
that many of those companies will be larger, more established and better known and will have greater financial and marketing resources than we have. Also, we have greater responsibilities in marketing and providing warranty protection and service
for these products, as compared to the products we source from traditional suppliers for resale in the RV or boating markets. There is no assurance that we will be successful in marketing and selling these products, and the costs we incur in doing
so may reduce our earnings or possibly even cause us to incur losses and we could incur liabilities for possible warranty claims related to these products.

Increased Reliance on Foreign Suppliers.

As we increase our reliance on foreign suppliers, we may
become increasingly vulnerable to the effects of political instability and adverse economic conditions in the countries in which those suppliers are located. Additionally, while we pay for the products we purchase in foreign countries in U.S.
Dollars, and therefore, those purchases do not expose us to currency exchange risks, a weakening U.S. Dollar may lead foreign suppliers to increase the prices they charge us for their products in order to mitigate their currency exchange risk.
Such price increases could reduce the margin advantage that we have realized on our resale of those products.

Product Liability
Risks.

Although we do not manufacture any of the products we sell, it is not uncommon for us to be named as an additional defendant in
product liability lawsuits brought against the manufacturers of the products we sell. To protect ourselves from liability, we have been able in many instances to obtain indemnification agreements from these manufacturers or to be named as additional
insureds under their product liability insurance policies. Nevertheless, we also maintain our own product liability insurance. We also conduct quality control testing, at our own product testing laboratories in the United States, of proprietary
products that we import from Asia. However, although we have never incurred any material product liabilities in excess of the insurance coverages that we have obtained under policies of insurance maintained either by product manufacturers or by us,
there is no assurance that we will not incur, in the future, product liabilities in amounts that materially exceed the insurance coverage and indemnification protections that we have and which, as a result, could reduce our earnings.

Risks of Patent Infringement Claims.

We design, or have independent product design firms or manufacturers, design and engineer many of the proprietary products and foreign sourced products
that we introduce into the marketplace. From time to time manufacturers of competing products have threatened and on occasion have brought suits against us claiming that some of our proprietary or foreign sourced products infringe their patents. We
retain a patent law firm to review new products that we plan to introduce into the market for potential patent infringements and that firm works in concert with our product design engineers and independent design firms or manufacturers to ensure
that our products do not infringe on patents or other proprietary rights held by competitors. To date we have not incurred any material liability as a result of any patent infringement claims that have been threatened or asserted against us.
However, there can be no assurance that we will not incur liability for patent infringement in the future. Additionally, the filing of a patent infringement suit may require us to halt sales or to redesign newly introduced products to avoid patent
infringement liability, which could reduce our sales and increase our costs and, thereby, adversely affect our results of operations.

No Assurance that We Will Be Able to Fund Cash Dividends Pursuant to our Dividend Policy.

Although the Board of Directors
has adopted a cash dividend policy that provides for regular quarterly cash dividends of $0.07 per share, the payment of cash dividends in the future will depend on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, our future financial
performance, our available cash resources and the cash requirements of our business and, possibly also, the consents of third parties, such as the lender under our revolving credit facility. As a result, there can be no assurance that future
quarterly cash dividends will continue to be equal to the $0.07 per share called for by our current dividend policy or that we will not find it necessary to suspend or even terminate the payment of cash dividends in the future.

Additional uncertainties and risks that could affect our future financial performance or future financial condition are discussed above in Part I of this
Report, entitled BUSINESS and in MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION below, in Part II of this Report, and you are urged to read those sections as well.

Due to these and other possible uncertainties and risks, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in
this Report, which speak only as of the date of this Annual Report. We also disclaim any obligation to update forward-looking information contained in this Report, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Our executive offices are located in Morgan Hill, California, a suburb of San Jose, where we lease
26,000 square feet of office space. Our address at that location is 350 Woodview Avenue, Morgan Hill, California 95037, where our telephone number is (408) 782-6686.

We lease 18,125 square feet of space in Elkhart, Indiana and 2,000 square feet of space in Saint-Hubert, Quebec where we maintain product testing facilities. We also lease 1,500 square feet of office space in Seattle,
Washington where we maintain a sales office.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time we are named as a defendant, sometimes along with product
manufacturers and others, in product liability and personal injury litigation. We believe that this type of litigation is incidental to our operations, and since we have insurance, and in many instances also indemnities from the manufacturers from
which we obtain our products. On a couple of occasions, we have been named as a defendant in patent infringement litigation brought against manufacturers of certain of our proprietary products. To date we have not incurred any material liabilities
in any product liability, personal injury or patent litigation and there is no legal action presently pending against us that we believe is likely to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

Not Applicable.

On March 14, 2008 the closing price per share of our shares of common stock on the American
Stock Exchange was $4.84 and there were approximately 700 holders of record of the Companys shares.

Dividend Policy

In January 2005, our Board of Directors adopted a cash dividend policy that provided for the payment of quarterly cash dividends, each in the amount of
$0.04 per common share. In January 2006, our Board of Directors increased the regular quarterly cash dividend to $0.05 per share, and in August 2006, our Board of Directors further increased that cash dividend to $0.07 per share per quarter. In
accordance with our dividend policy, we paid cash dividends to our stockholders of $1,240,000, $1,064,000 and $727,000 in 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. We expect to pay cash dividends in 2008 totaling approximately $1,250,000 (which is based on
the assumption that the average number of shares outstanding during 2008 will be approximately 4,450,000).

The payment of quarterly cash
dividends in the future pursuant to this policy will be subject to final determination by the Board of Directors each quarter, based on its review of a number of considerations, including the Companys financial performance and its available
cash resources and its cash requirements. It also could become necessary for us to obtain the consent of the lender under our credit facility in order to pay cash dividends pursuant to this dividend policy. For these reasons, as well as others,
there can be no assurance that the amount of future cash dividends will not have to be reduced or that the payment of dividends will not have to be suspended or even terminated in its entirety in the future.

Repurchases of Common Stock

On June 3, 2005, we
publicly announced the adoption, by our Board of Directors, of a stock repurchase program which, at that time, authorized the Company to repurchase, in the aggregate, up to $1,740,000 of shares of our common stock in open market or private
transactions in accordance with the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. On December 9, 2005, we publicly announced that our Board of Directors had authorized a $1.2 million increase in the dollar amount of shares that
could be repurchased under this program. We purchased a total of 78,183, 150,545 and 280,008 shares of our common stock pursuant to that program during 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $2,778,000.

##### Table of Contents

We did not purchase any shares of our common stock pursuant to this plan during the three months ended
December 31, 2007 and up to $162,000 of shares may still be purchased under this plan. This program does not have an expiration date. However, the Company may choose not to make any additional share purchases under this program and may suspend
or terminate the program at any time.

Preferred Stock Rights Dividend

On February 1, 2006, a Special Committee of the Board of Directors, comprised solely of independent directors who also constituted a majority of the Board, approved the adoption of a Shareholder Rights Plan and
declared a dividend distribution of one right (a Right) for each outstanding share of the Companys common stock to stockholders of record at the close of business on February 15, 2006. The Stockholder Rights Plan was approved
by the Companys stockholders at the Annual Meeting held in August 2006.

No separate Rights certificates have been distributed to the
Companys stockholders as a result of the dividend distribution. Instead, the Rights are attached to common stock certificates representing the Companys outstanding shares and are not exercisable and do not trade separately from the
Companys common stock. However, subject to extension by the Board of Directors in certain circumstances, the Rights will separate from the common stock and a distribution date (the Distribution Date) will occur, ten (10) days
following the earlier to occur of (i) a public announcement that a person or group of affiliated or associated persons (a Acquiring Person) has acquired, or obtained the right to acquire, beneficial ownership of twenty-five percent
(25%) or more of the Companys outstanding shares, or (ii) the commencement of a tender offer or exchange offer that would result in a person or group beneficially owning twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the outstanding
shares of Common Stock.

Unless the acquisition of such shares or the tender offer or exchange offer has been approved by the
Companys Board of Directors or meets certain other requirements, each Right will represent a right to purchase, for a purchase price of $25.00 per share, a number of newly issued shares of the Companys common stock or, under certain
circumstances, newly issued shares of the Acquiring Person, or its affiliated corporation, having an aggregate market value of two (2) times the exercise price of the Right.

If a Distribution Date does occur, then, as soon as practicable thereafter, Rights Certificates will be mailed to record holders of our outstanding
common stock as of the close of business on the Distribution Date and, thereafter, the separate Rights Certificates alone will represent the Rights. Except as otherwise determined by the Board of Directors, only holders of shares of our common stock
issued prior to a Distribution Date will be issued Rights.

The Rights are redeemable by action of the Board of Directors at any time prior
to the occurrence of a Distribution Date at a redemption price of at a price of $0.001 per Right. Additionally, unless a Distribution Date has previously occurred, the Rights will expire at the close of business on February 15, 2009.

The issuance of the Rights dividend was intended to encourage any one seeking to acquire the Company to negotiate the terms of such an
acquisition with the Board of Directors, rather than launching a hostile attempt to take control of the Company. The Board of Directors believes that, through negotiations, the Board and management would be able to better ascertain the intentions
and capabilities of anyone seeking to gain control of the Company and take steps needed to achieve fair and non-discriminatory treatment of all stockholders of the Company. If the Board, as a result of such efforts, comes to support the proposed
acquisition, it has the authority to redeem or modify the Rights. However, the existence of the Rights may also have the effect of discouraging acquisition proposals that might be viewed as favorable to the Companys stockholders.

The terms of the Rights are set forth in a Rights Agreement dated as of February 3, 2006 (the Rights Agreement), between the Company
and the Companys transfer agent, U.S. Stock Transfer Corporation, as Rights Agent. The above summary of the Rights does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Rights Agreement, which is attached as
Exhibit 4.1 to the Companys registration statement on Form 8-A filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on February 6, 2006 to register the Rights under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Stock Price Performance Graph

The following graph presents a five-year comparison of cumulative total returns for (i) Coast, (ii) an index comprised of companies within the recreational products markets that were selected by us (the
Peer Group), and (iii) the American Stock Exchange composite index (the AMEX Composite). The Peer Group consists of Brunswick Corporation, Coachmen Industries Inc., Fleetwood Enterprises, Inc., and Winnebago Industries,
Inc., which are manufacturers of recreational vehicles and boats, and West Marine Inc. which sells boating parts, supplies and accessories both at wholesale and at retail. The data for the graph was obtained from Morningstar, Inc.

The Stock Performance Graph assumes that $100 was invested, at the end of fiscal 2002, in Coasts shares and in the shares of the companies
comprising the Peer Group Index and the Amex Composite Index and that any dividends issued for the indicated periods were reinvested. Stockholder returns shown in the Performance Graph are not necessarily indicative of future stock performance.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Management Overview

We believe that Coast is one of the largest wholesale suppliers of replacement parts,
supplies and accessories for recreational vehicles (RVs), and boats in North America. We supply more than 15,000 products and serve more than 14,000 customers throughout the United States and Canada, from 13 regional distribution centers
in the United States and 4 regional distribution centers in Canada. Our sales are made to retail parts and supplies stores, service and repair establishments and new and used RV and boat dealers (After-Market Customers).

Factors Generally Affecting Sales of RV and Boating Products

Our sales are affected primarily by (i) usage of RVs and boats by the consumers to whom After-Market Customers sell our products, because such usage affects the consumers needs for and purchases of
replacement parts, repair services and supplies, and (ii) sales of new RVs and boats, because consumers often accessorize their RVs and boats at the time of purchase.

The usage and the purchase, by consumers, of RVs and boats depend, in large measure, upon the extent of discretionary income available to consumers and
their confidence about economic conditions. As a result, recessionary conditions and increases in interest rates often lead to declines in the purchase and, to a lesser extent, in the usage, of RVs and boats. Additionally, increases in the prices
and shortages in the supply of gasoline can lead to declines in the usage and purchases of RVs and boats, because these conditions increase the consumers costs and the difficulties of using their RVs and boats. Weather conditions also can
affect our operating results, because unusually severe or extended winter weather conditions can reduce the usage of RVs and boats for periods extending beyond the ordinary winter months or to regions that ordinarily encounter milder winter weather
conditions and can cause period-to-period fluctuations in our sales and financial performance. As a result, our sales and operating results can be, and in the past have been, affected by recessionary economic conditions, increases in interest rates,
shortages in the supply and increases in the prices of gasoline and unusually adverse weather conditions.

##### Table of Contents

As the above table indicates, operating income and net income declined significantly in 2007 from 2006.
Those declines were primarily attributable to the following factors:



| |  |  | Decrease in Net Sales. Net Sales declined by 8.3% in 2007 primarily as a result of a reduction in the usage and purchases, by consumers, of RVs and boats in
response to (i) substantial increases in gasoline prices, particularly during the spring and summer months when usage of RVs and boats is usually at its highest, (ii) increases in interest rates during the first half of 2007, which made
the purchase of RVs and boats more expensive, and (iii) a slowing economy and increasing concerns about the onset of a possible economic recession, that led to a decline in consumer confidence and, in turn, caused consumers to curtail
discretionary spending. The decrease in sales of traditional RV and boating products was partially offset by increased sales of our proprietary and foreign sourced products.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Gross Margin and Gross Profits. We were able to maintain our gross margin in 2007 at 18.7%, down only slightly from 18.8% in 2006, primarily as a result of
(i) increases in sales of our proprietary and foreign-sourced products, on which we are able to realize higher margins than on sales of traditional RV and boating products, (ii) price increases on selected products, and (iii) the strengthening of
the Canadian Dollar. Nevertheless, gross profits declined by 8.6% in 2007, as compared to 2006, due primarily to the decline in net sales in 2007.
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Increase in Selling General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased by 3.2% in 2007,
primarily due to increases in marketing and selling expenses and in the costs of adding engineering and quality control personnel, to support the growth of our proprietary products business.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | Interest Expense. Interest expense increased in 2007 due to (i) increases during the first half of 2007 in market rates of interest, which determine the
rate of interest on our credit line borrowings, and (ii) higher average credit line borrowings, which were used primarily to increase our inventory of products that we source from the Far East and have been introducing, on an increasing basis,
into the market.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Outlook for 2008

The relatively high gasoline prices, a continued slowing of the economy and concerns and uncertainties regarding the duration of what now appears to be a severe economic slowdown in the United States have continued
into 2008. We expect that these conditions will continue to adversely affect purchases and usage by consumers of RVs and boats throughout the remainder of 2008 and, therefore, the need for and purchases by consumers of the products that we sell. Our
strategic goals for 2008 are to capture additional market share and to improve our gross margin, despite these market conditions, primarily by continuing to increase our sales of proprietary products and other foreign sourced products. We generally
are able to realize higher margins on sales of proprietary products, which we believe have gained greater acceptance among users of RVs and boats during the past three years. No assurance can be given, however, that we will be able to achieve these
goals because, as is described above under the caption Factors Generally Affecting Sales of RV and Boating Products, and in Item 1A of this Report, entitled RISK FACTORS, our sales and profitability can be
affected by a number of conditions that are outside of our control. Additionally, the higher costs of marketing, testing and servicing our line of generator products, as well as new proprietary products that we will be sourcing from the Far East,
could offset the positive effects of any increases in sales of those higher margin products.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

General

In accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), we record most of our assets at the lower
of cost or fair value. In the case of some of our assets, principally accounts receivable, inventories and deferred income taxes, we make adjustments to their cost or fair values to arrive at what we expect to be able to collect on outstanding
accounts receivables, the amounts for which we expect to be able to sell our inventories and the amount of available tax loss and credit carryforwards and deductions that we will be able to use to reduce our future income tax liability. Those
adjustments are made on the basis of a number of different factors, including judgments or assumptions we make regarding economic and market conditions and trends and their impact on our financial performance, and those judgments and assumptions
are, in turn, based on current information available to us. If those conditions or trends were to change in ways that we did not expect, then, based on our assessment of how those changes will affect the

prospects for realizing the values at which we have recorded these assets, we may be required, pursuant to GAAP, to further adjust the carrying values at
which we record these assets for financial reporting purposes. Any resulting downward adjustments are commonly referred to as write-downs of the assets affected by the changed conditions.

It is our practice to establish reserves or allowances against which we are able to charge any such downward adjustments or write-downs to
these assets. Examples include an allowance established for uncollectible accounts receivable (sometimes referred to as bad debt reserves) and an allowance for inventory obsolescence. The amounts at which those allowances are established
and maintained are based on our historical experience and also on our assumptions and judgments about economic or market conditions or trends and any other factors that could affect the values at which we had recorded such assets. Those allowances
are periodically increased to replenish the allowances following write-downs of uncollectible accounts or to take account of increased risks due to changes in economic or market conditions or trends. Increases in the allowances are effectuated by
charges to income or increases in expense in our statement of operations in the periods when those allowances are increased. As a result, our judgments or assumptions about market and economic conditions or trends and about their effects on our
financial performance can and will affect not only the amounts at which we record these assets on our balance sheet, but also our results of operations.

The decisions as to the timing of (i) adjustments or write-downs of this nature and (ii) the increases we make to our reserves, also require subjective evaluations or assessments about the effects and
duration of changes in economic or market conditions or trends. For example, it is difficult to predict whether events or changes in economic or market conditions, such as increasing gasoline prices or interest rates or economic slowdowns, will be
of short or long-term duration, and it is not uncommon for it to take some time after the onset of such changes, for their full effects on our business to be recognized. Therefore, management makes such estimates based upon the information available
at that time and reevaluates and adjusts its reserves and allowances for potential write-downs on a quarterly basis.

Under GAAP, most
businesses also must make estimates or judgments regarding the periods during which sales are recorded and also the amounts at which they are recorded. Those estimates and judgments will depend on such factors as the steps or actions that a business
must take to complete a sale of products to or to perform services for a customer and the circumstances under which a customer would be entitled to return the products or reject or adjust the payment for the services rendered to it. Additionally, in
the case of a business that grants its customers contractual rights to return products sold to them, GAAP requires that a reserve or allowance be established for product returns by means of a reduction in the amount at which its sales are recorded
based primarily on the nature, extensiveness and duration of those rights and historical return experience.

In making our estimates and
assumptions we follow GAAP and accounting practices applicable to our business that we believe will enable us to make fair and consistent estimates of the carrying value of those assets and to establish adequate reserves or allowances for downward
adjustments in those values that we may have to make in future periods. See CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS  Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm in Item 8 of this Report.

Our Critical Accounting Policies

Set
forth below is a summary of the accounting policies that we believe are material to an understanding of our financial condition and results of operations that are discussed below.

Revenue Recognition and the Allowance for Product Returns. We recognize revenue from the sale of a product upon its shipment to the customer. We
provide our customers with limited rights to return products that we sell to them. We establish an allowance for potential returns that reduces the amounts of our reported sales. We estimate the allowance based on historical experience with returns
of like products and current economic and market conditions and trends, which can affect the level at which customers submit products for return.

Accounts Receivable and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.In the normal course of our business we extend 30 day payment terms to our customers and, due to the seasonality of our business, during late fall and winter we grant
payment terms of longer duration to those of our customers that have good credit records. We regularly review our customers accounts and estimate the amount of, and establish an allowance for, uncollectible amounts or receivables in each
reporting period. The amount of the allowance is based on several factors, including the age of unpaid amounts, a review of significant past due accounts, and current economic and market trends that can affect the ability of customers to keep their
accounts current. Estimates of uncollectible amounts are reviewed periodically to determine if the allowance should be increased, and any increases are recorded in the accounting period in which the events that require such increases

become known. For example, if the financial condition of some of our customers or economic or market conditions were to deteriorate, adversely affecting
their ability to make payments to us on a timely basis, increases in the allowance may be required. Since the allowance is increased or replenished by recording a charge which is included in, and has the effect of increasing, selling, general and
administrative expenses, an increase in the allowance will reduce income in the period when the increase is recorded.

Reserve for
Excess, Slow-Moving and Obsolete Inventory. Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or net realizable value and that value is reduced by an allowance for excess and slowing-moving or obsolete inventories. The amount of
the allowance is determined on the basis of historical experience with different product lines, estimates or assumptions concerning future economic and market conditions and estimates of future sales. If there is an economic downturn or a decline in
sales, causing inventories of some product lines to accumulate, it may become necessary to increase the allowance. Other factors that can require increases in the allowance or inventory write downs are reductions in pricing or introduction of new or
competitive products by manufacturers; however, due to the relative maturity of the markets in which the Company operates, usually these are not significant factors. Increases in this allowance also will cause a decline in operating results as such
increases are effectuated by charges against income.

Allowance for Deferred Income Taxes. We record as a deferred tax
asset on our balance sheet tax loss carryforwards and tax deductions that can be applied in future periods to offset or reduce our future income tax liability. At December 31, 2007 the aggregate amount of that deferred tax asset was
approximately $2.1 million. Under applicable federal and state income tax laws and regulations, tax loss carryforwards and tax deductions will expire if not used within specified periods of time. Accordingly, the ability to use this deferred
tax asset depends on the taxable income that we are able to generate during those time periods. We have made a judgment, based on historical experience and current and anticipated market and economic conditions and trends, that it is more likely
than not that we will generate taxable income in future years sufficient to fully use the deferred tax asset that is recorded in our financial statements. However, if due to future events or circumstances, we subsequently come to a different
conclusion regarding our ability to fully utilize this asset, we would create a valuation allowance in order to reduce the amount at which we record the deferred tax asset to the amount we believe we will be able to fully utilize. The creation of
such an allowance would be effectuated by an increase in the provision (or a reduction in the credit) for income taxes in our statement of income, which would have the effect of reducing our income in the fiscal period in which such provision is
recorded.

Long-Lived and Intangible Assets. Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and certain types of identifiable
intangibles, are reviewed for possible impairment at least annually or if and when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of any of those assets may not be recoverable in full, based on standards established by
SFAS No. 142, by comparing the fair value of the long-lived asset to its carrying amount. In the event that we were to determine that the fair value of the asset has declined below its carrying value, we would be required to reduce the
value at we record the asset on our balance sheet to its fair value through a charge to earnings.

Foreign Currency Translation. The
financial position and results of operations of our foreign subsidiaries are measured using local currency as the functional currency. Assets and liabilities of each foreign subsidiary are translated into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange in
effect at the end of each reporting period. Revenues and expenses of our foreign subsidiaries are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rate for the reporting period. Foreign currency translation gains and losses not impacting cash
flows are credited to or charged against other comprehensive earnings. Foreign currency translation gains and losses arising from cash transactions are credited to or charged against current earnings.

Stock Based Compensation.

We adopted
the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement (SFAS) 123R, Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R) effective on January 1, 2006. SFAS 123R established standards in accounting for transactions in
which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services, such as the options issued under the Companys Stock Incentive Plans. SFAS 123R provides for, and we elected to adopt, the modified prospective method for applying
SFAS 123R. Under that method, we began recognizing compensation cost on January 1, 2006 for the fair value of (i) all share based award grants made on or after such date and (ii) the portion of pre-existing awards for which the
requisite service had not been rendered as of January 1, 2006, in each case based on the grant-date fair value of those awards calculated under SFAS 123 for pro forma disclosures. Our stock option compensation expense was $214,000 and $132,000
for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Prior to January 1 2006, we had elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related interpretations in accounting for stock based compensation. Accordingly, no compensation expense was recognized in the statement of earnings included in these
consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 relating to stock-based awards to employees granted prior to January 1, 2006 when the exercise price of those awards was equal to or greater than the quoted market
price on the date of the grant.

Warranty Costs. We generally do not independently warrant the products that we distribute. Instead,
in almost all cases, the manufacturers of the products that we distribute warrant the products and allow us to return defective products, including those that have been returned to us by our customers. However, in the last quarter of 2005, we began
selling a line of portable and standby generators under a product supply arrangement which obligates us to provide warranty services for these products and to share the costs of providing those services with the manufacturer. The warranty period for
these products is for 24 months following the sale of the product to a retail customer. In 2005, we did not have sufficient experience with these products to be able to predict, with accuracy, the warranty costs that we might incur under this
arrangement and, as a result, we had not yet established any reserves for such costs or for possible warranty claims that might have been made with respect to these products. In the fourth quarter of 2006, we had sufficient history on the type of
warranty claims and the cost of those claims to reasonably estimate future claims on these products. Accordingly, we established a warranty reserve for these products of $553,000 and $418,000 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The
actual amounts that we may become obligated to pay with respect to warranty claims on these products may differ from the amounts that were set aside in those reserves. In the event that the estimates on which the reserves were based later prove to
be incorrect due to increases in the number or amounts of the warranty claims we receive, it could become necessary for us to increase the reserve by means of a charge to our income. Increases in sales of these products in the future also may
necessitate increases in our warranty reserve.

Adoption of Fin 48. In June 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarified the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an enterprises financial
statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 Accounting for Income Taxes (FAS 109). This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for
the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition of tax benefits, classification on the balance sheet, interest and penalties,
accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007. In accordance with FIN 48, the Company decided to classify interest and penalties as a component of tax expense. The
Company recognized no material adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits as a result of the implementation of FIN 48. At its adoption date of January 1, 2007, the Company had $159,000 of unrecognized tax benefits. To the
extent these unrecognized tax benefits are ultimately recognized, they will impact the Companys effective tax rate. At December, 31, 2007 the Company had $179,000 of unrecognized tax benefits of which $20,000 impacted the effective tax rate in
2007. Interest and penalties were $61,000 as of December 31, 2007, of which $44,000 was included in the balance sheet and $17,000 was included as an expense in the current year income statement as unrecognized tax benefits.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In
September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 provides a new single authoritative definition of fair value and
provides enhanced guidance for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities and requires additional disclosures related to the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information used to measure fair value,
and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. SFAS No. 157 was to become effective for us as of January 1, 2008. However, at the February 6, 2008 meeting, the FASB agreed to defer for one year the effective date of SFAS
No 157 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (that is, at least annually).

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option of Financial Assets and
Liabilities (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 provides entities with the option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Business entities adopting SFAS 159 will report unrealized gains and losses in
earnings at each subsequent reporting date on items for which fair value option has been elected. SFAS 159 established presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different
measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 requires additional information that will help investors and other financial statements users to understand the effect of an entitys choice to use fair value on
its earnings. SFAS 159 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with earlier adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact that the adoption of SFAS 159 may have on our consolidated
financial position, results of operation and cash flows in fiscal 2008.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 (Revised 2007)
(SFAS No. 141R), Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141(R) will change accounting for business combinations. Under SFAS No. 141(R), an acquiring entity will be required to recognize all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed
in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 141(R) also will change the accounting treatment and disclosures for certain specific items in a business combination. SFAS No. 141(R) applies
prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 31, 2008. SFAS No. 141(R) will have an impact on accounting for business
combinations once adopted, but the effect is dependent upon acquisitions effectuated after its effective date.

In December 2007, the FASB
issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160 (SFAS No. 160), Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements  An Amendment of ARB No. 51. SFAS No. 160 establishes new accounting and
reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently assessing the
impact that the adoption of SFAS NO. 160 may have on our consolidated financial statements.

Results of Operations

The following table sets forth certain financial data, expressed as a percentage of net
sales, derived from our statements of income for the respective periods indicated below:

Net Sales

Net sales consist of revenues from the sales of the products we supply or distribute, net of an allowance for product returns. The following table sets forth certain information regarding the increases in net sales in
fiscal 2007, fiscal 2006 and fiscal 2005. Dollars in the table are in thousands.



|     |         |      |   |                       |  |      |      |  |                       |         |  |     |

The decline in net sales in 2007, as compared to 2006, was primarily attributable to an
industry-wide decline in usage and purchases, by consumers, of RVs and boats that, in turn, adversely affected the demand for our products from our After-Market Customers. We believe that this decline was primarily attributable to high gasoline
prices, shortages in available financing of RVs and boats, and uncertainties and concerns about the direction of the economy, which led consumers to curtail discretionary expenditures.

The increase in net sales in 2006, as compared to 2005, was primarily attributable to increase in sales of our proprietary and foreign sourced products,
largely the Kipor line of portable and standby generators, for which we hold exclusive distribution rights in North America. Those increase more than offset the effects of the industry-wide decline in the purchase and usage of RVs and boats by
consumers and the consequent decline in sales of RV and boating products of the type we sell.

Gross Margin

Gross profit is calculated by subtracting the cost of sales from net sales. Cost of sales consists primarily of the amounts paid to manufacturers and suppliers for the products that we purchase for resale, and
warehouse and distribution costs, including warehouse labor costs and freight charges. Gross margin is gross profits stated as a percentage of net sales.



|             |  |                        |        |   |      |   |        |      |  |   |        |

|             |  | (Dollars in thousands) |       
|Gross profit |  | $                      | 30,715 |   |      | $ | 33,602 |      |  | $ | 32,609 |  
|Gross margin |  |                        | 18.7   | % |      |   | 18.8   | %    |  |   | 18.5   | %

In 2007, we were able to maintain our gross margin at 18.7%, almost unchanged from our gross
margin of 18.8% in 2006, primarily due to (i) increased sales of products sourced from the Far East, on which we realize higher margins than on competing products available from traditional sources; (ii) price increases implemented on
selected products in the second half of 2007; and (iii) the strengthening of the Canadian Dollar, which enabled our Canadian subsidiary, which purchases products from suppliers in the United States, to improve its margins. These factors largely
offset the effect on margins of increased freight and shipping costs. However, due primarily to the decline in net sales in 2007, gross profits declined by $2.9 million or 8.6% in 2007, as compared to 2006.

In 2006 our gross margin increased to 18.8%, as compared to 18.5% in 2005. This increase was primarily attributable to increase in sales of our
proprietary and other foreign sourced products including, in particular, the Kipor generator products, on which we realize higher gross margins than on traditional RV and boating products. The effect of this change in product mix more than offset an
increase in freight and shipping costs and warranty costs associated with the sale of the generators.

Selling, General and
Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses consist primarily of selling and marketing
costs, selling and administrative labor and other administrative costs, professional fees, insurance and the provision made for uncollectible accounts. Also included in SG&A expense, in 2007 and 2006, was stock based compensation expense,
attributable to the grant and vesting of employee stock options, which was recorded in accordance with SFAS No. 123R. Such expense was not required to be and was not recorded in our income statement in 2005.

SG&A expenses increased by $905,000 or 3.3% in 2007, due primarily to increases in labor costs
associated with sales, design, engineering and quality control personnel for our proprietary and foreign sourced products. Also contributing to the increase were legal expenses, and expenses relating to the documentation and testing of the
Companys internal controls systems as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, which became applicable to the Company effective as of December 31, 2007.

SG&A expenses increased by $2,228,000 or 8.9% in 2006, primarily due to increases in labor, both selling and administrative, and increases in
insurance premiums and legal and accounting expenses. The increased labor costs were largely attributable to increased sales, quality control, design and administrative personnel to support sales and the design, development, quality and servicing of
the proprietary and imported products, such as the Kipor generators, that we sell. Also contributing to that increase in SG&A expense was stock based compensation expense of $132,000. No such expense was recorded in 2005.

Interest expense is the largest component of other (income) expense and is incurred on the
borrowings that we make under our revolving bank line of credit. Interest expense increased by $481,000 or 30% in 2007, and by $309,000, or 24%, in 2006, in each case as compared to the immediately preceding year. The increase in 2007 was due
primarily to increases in average borrowings under our long-term credit facility and, to a lesser extent, to increases in the first half of 2007 in prevailing market rates of interest, on which the interest rate on our borrowings is based. The
increase in 2006 was the result of higher rates of interest charged on borrowings under our bank line of credit, due primarily to increases in prevailing market rates of interest to which the interest rate on our borrowing is tied.

Our effective income tax rate is affected by the amount of our expenses that are not deductible
for income tax purposes, such as stock based compensation expense, and by varying tax rates on income generated by our foreign subsidiaries. The respective decreases in the income tax provision in 2007 and 2006, as compared to the prior-year
periods, were primarily attributable to decreases in taxable income in each of those years, in each case as compared to the immediately preceding year. The increase in the effective tax rate in 2007, as compared to 2006, was due to the
proportionally higher percentage of non-deductible expenses to our pre-tax earnings in 2007 as compared to 2006. The decrease in the effective tax rate in 2006, as compared to 2005, was due to a tax accrual for unremitted earnings of our foreign
affiliate in Taiwan in 2005 and to an increase in pre-tax earnings of our subsidiary in Canada in 2006.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Working Capital, Liquidity and Cash Flows

We finance our working capital requirements for our operations primarily with borrowings under a long-term revolving credit facility from a bank and
internally generated funds. Under the terms of the revolving credit facility, we may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $50,000,000 during the period from March through July, and $40,000,000 during the period from August through February, of each
year, or (ii) an amount equal to 80% of eligible accounts receivable and between 50% to 55% of eligible inventory. During 2007, interest on the revolving credit facility was payable at the banks prime rate or, at the Companys option
but subject to certain limitations, at LIBOR plus 1.25% per annum. Pursuant to the terms of our credit line agreement, for 2008 the interest rate is equal to 0.25% over the banks prime rate, or Libor plus 1.75% per annum.

The revolving credit agreement with the bank contains certain restrictive covenants. The Company was in compliance with all the covenants as of
December 31, 2007. The credit line is scheduled to mature in May 2010.

At March 20, 2008, outstanding borrowings under the
revolving credit facility totaled $34,500,000. Our bank borrowings are secured by substantially all of our consolidated assets and rank senior in priority to any other indebtedness that the Company may incur.

Due to the nature of our business, our primary need for working capital is to finance our accounts receivable and our purchases of inventory. Typically
we bill our customers on an open account basis with 2%, 10 day, net 30-day terms. During late fall and in winter, however, certain of our customers receive payment terms of longer duration and, as a result, we generally use a greater proportion of
our borrowing availability during the first and fourth quarters of each year than during other parts of the year.

We generally use cash
for, rather than generate cash from, operations in the first half of the year, because we build inventories, and accounts receivables increase, as our customers begin increasing their product purchases prior to and in anticipation of the spring and
summer selling seasons. See Seasonality and Inflation below.

Sources and Uses of Cash in 2007

Cash Provided by Operations. During 2007, our operations provided net cash of $1.3 million. Cash provided by operations was comprised of a $1.6
million reduction in inventory, a $0.4 million reduction in prepaid expenses, net profits of $0.2 million, and nearly $1.1 million of operating expenses that were non-cash expenses. Cash used by operations was comprised of reductions in accounts
payable and accrued liabilities of $0.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively, and an increase in accounts receivable of $0.7 million.

Cash Used by Financing Activities. During 2007, we used nearly $1.0 million of net cash for financing activities. Cash used in financing activities included $1.2 million of cash to fund the payment of cash dividends to our
stockholders and $485,000 to fund purchases under our stock repurchase program. Cash provided by financing activities was comprised of a net increase of $440,000 in credit line borrowings and $434,000 of proceeds from the sale of shares under our
employee stock plans. See TRADING MARKET FOR OUR SHARES, OTHER STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND REPURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES Dividend Policy Share Repurchases in Item 6 of Part II of this Report, for information regarding our
dividend policy and share repurchase program.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities. We used $1.7 million of cash in investing
activities in 2007, principally to fund capital expenditures, primarily for warehouse, testing and design and computer equipment.

|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dividend Policy. In the first quarter of 2005, our Board of Directors adopted a dividend policy that provided for the payment of quarterly cash dividends of $0.04 per share to our stockholders in March, June,
September and December of each year. Pursuant to that policy we paid total cash dividends in 2005 of $727,000.

In the first quarter of
2006, our Board of Directors approved an increase in the quarterly dividend to $0.05 per share. In August 2006, our Board of Directors increased the quarterly dividend to $0.07 per share. In 2007 and 2006 we paid total cash dividends of $1,241,000
and $1,064,000, respectively. We expect to pay dividends of approximately $1,250,000 in 2008 (which is calculated based on a quarterly dividend of $0.07 per share and an estimated average number of shares outstanding of 4,450,000.)

Share Repurchases. In 2005, our Board of Directors adopted share repurchase programs authorizing repurchases by us of up to an aggregate of
$2,940,000 of our shares of common stock in open market or private transactions. During 2007, 2006 and 2005, we made share repurchases totaling $485,000, $1,195,000 and $1,440,000, respectively, pursuant to those programs. We funded the share
repurchases with a combination of internally generated funds and borrowings under our revolving credit facility.

Expected Uses and
Sources of Funds

We expect to make capital expenditures in 2008 that we estimate will range between $300,000 and $500,000 to upgrade
our AS400 computer and expand our product testing facilities in Elkhart, Indiana and Wilsonville, Oregon. Those expenditures will be in addition to capital expenditures of a recurring nature, for such purposes as the replacement and upgrading of
equipment, that we expect will range from $400,000 to $600,000 per year.

We expect to be able to fund these expenditures and our working
capital requirements, and to pay cash dividends with borrowings under our revolving credit facility and internally generated funds.

We will continue to explore opportunities to increase our sales and our market share and to improve our
profit margins. We plan to establish new product supply relationships, including relationships that enable us to increase the products that we source from lower cost, but high quality, overseas suppliers, including product suppliers in China and
other countries in the Far East, and in Canada, Europe and the United States, and to invest in tooling needed for such products. We also may seek to take advantage of other growth opportunities if and when they may arise. As a result, we may have
occasion in the future to use internally generated funds or bank borrowings for these purposes. There is no assurance, however, that, if required for these purposes, we will be able to obtain additional bank borrowings.

Seasonality and Inflation

Seasonality. We generate significantly higher sales during the six-month
period from March through August, when usage of RVs and boats are at their peak, than we do during the remainder of the year when weather conditions are not optimal for outdoor activities. Because a substantial portion our expenses are fixed,
operating income declines and we sometimes incur losses, and must rely more heavily on borrowings to fund operating requirements, during the period from September through February when our sales are lower.

The following table presents unaudited quarterly financial information for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006. This
information has been prepared by us on a basis consistent with our audited financial statements included elsewhere in this Report. The information includes all necessary adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, that management
considers necessary for a fair presentation of the unaudited quarterly operating results when read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this Report. These quarterly operating results are
not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected in future periods.

Inflation. Generally, we have been able to pass inflationary price increases on to our
customers. However, inflation also may cause or may be accompanied by increases in gasoline prices and interest rates. Such increases, or even the prospect of increases in the price or shortages in the supply of gasoline, can adversely affect the
purchase and usage of RVs and boats, which can result in a decline in the demand for our products.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Our exposure to market risk with
respect to financial instruments is primarily related to changes in interest rates with respect to borrowing activities, which may adversely affect our financial position, results of operations and cash flows. To a lesser degree, we are exposed to
market risk from foreign currency fluctuations associated with our Canadian operations and our Canadian currency denominated debt. We do not use financial instruments for trading or other speculative purposes and are not party to any derivative
financial instruments.

In seeking to minimize the risks from interest rate fluctuations, we manage exposures through our regular operating
and financing activities. The fair value of borrowings under our revolving credit facility approximates the carrying value of such obligations. As of December 31, 2007, we had outstanding $24.4 million under our revolving credit facility.

We sometimes enter into forward exchange agreements to reduce the effect of foreign currency fluctuations on a portion of our inventory
purchases in Canada for our Canadian operations. The gains and losses on these contracts are reflected in earnings in the period during which the transactions being hedged are recognized. We believe that these agreements do not subject us to
significant market risk from exchange rate movements because the agreements offset gains and losses on the balances and transactions being hedged. As of December 31, 2007, there were no such agreements outstanding.

Approximately 8% of our debt is denominated in Canadian currency, which also exposes us to market risk associated with exchange rate movements.
Historically, we have not used derivative financial instruments to manage our exposure to foreign currency rate fluctuations since the market risk associated with our foreign currency denominated debt has not been considered significant.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Stockholders of The Coast Distribution System,
Inc.

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The Coast Distribution System, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of
December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, and the related consolidated statements of earnings, stockholders equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Companys
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in
accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial
statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of The Coast Distribution System, Inc. and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and December 31, 2006, and the consolidated results
of their operations and their consolidated cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. Schedule II is presented for purposes
of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements. This schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all
material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

THE COAST DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE A: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

A summary of the significant accounting policies consistently applied in the preparation of the accompanying consolidated financial statements follows:

1. Principles of Consolidation. The Company consolidates the accounts of its wholly-owned subsidiaries, The Coast Distribution System (Canada) Inc.
(Coast Canada) and Eur-Asia Recreational Vehicle Accessories Taiwan Company (Coast Taiwan). Investments in unconsolidated affiliates are accounted for by the equity method. All material intercompany transactions have been
eliminated.

2. Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or net
realizable value. We regularly assess the appropriateness of the inventory valuations with particular attention to obsolete, slow-moving and non-saleable inventory. Inventories consist primarily of replacement parts, supplies and accessories held
for resale.

3. Property, Plant and Equipment. Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and
amortization. Depreciation and amortization are provided for in amounts sufficient to relate the cost of depreciable assets to operations over their estimated service lives, principally on a straight-line basis. The estimated lives used in
determining depreciation and amortization are:



|                               |  |              
|------------------------------ |  | -------------
|Buildings and improvements     |  | 12  40 years
|Warehouse and office equipment |  | 5  7 years  
|Automobiles                    |  | 3  5 years  

Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lives of the respective leases or the service lives
of the improvements, whichever is shorter. Currently the amortization periods range from 5 to 15 years.

4. Revenue Recognition.
Revenue from sales of products is recognized upon shipment. We provide our customers with a limited right of return. We establish an allowance for potential returns which reduce the amounts of our reported sales. We estimate the allowance based on
historical experience with returns of like products and current economic data, which can affect the level at which customers submit product returns.

5. Segment Reporting. We have one operating segment, which is the distribution of recreational vehicle and boating replacement parts, supplies and accessories. We distribute our recreational vehicle and boating
products from 17 distribution centers located throughout the United States and Canada. No single customer accounted for 10% or more of our net sales in 2007, 2006 or 2005.

6. Long-Lived and Intangible Assets. Long-lived assets, such as property and equipment, and certain types of identifiable intangibles, are
reviewed for possible impairment at least annually or, more frequently, if and when events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of any of those assets may not be recoverable in full, based on standards established by SFAS
No. 142, by comparing the fair value of the long-lived asset to its carrying amount.

7. Foreign Currency Translation. Exchange
adjustments resulting from foreign currency transactions are generally recognized in net earnings, whereas adjustments resulting from the translation of financial statements are reflected as a separate component of stockholders equity. Net
foreign currency transaction gains or losses are not material in any of the years presented. The functional currency of our Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian dollar.

8. Forward Exchange Contracts. On a selective basis, we enter into forward exchange contracts to reduce the effect of foreign currency fluctuations on a portion of the inventory purchases of Coast Canada. The
gains or losses on these contracts are included in earnings in the period when the related transactions being hedged are recognized. The contracts do not subject us to significant market risk from exchange rate movements because the contracts offset
gains and losses on the balances and transactions being hedged. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, there were no forward exchange contracts outstanding.

9. Income Taxes. We provide a deferred tax expense or benefit equal to the net change in the deferred tax liability or asset during the year. Deferred income taxes represent tax deductions and tax loss
carryforwards and future net tax effects resulting from temporary differences between the financial statement and tax basis of assets and liabilities, using enacted tax rates. A valuation allowance is provided against deferred tax assets if and to
the extent we determine that it is not more likely than not that the deferred tax asset will be realized in full.

10. Use of
Estimates. In preparing financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP), management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, as well as revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

11. Earnings per Share. Basic earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during
the period. Diluted earnings per share are computed using the weighted average number of common and potentially dilutive securities outstanding during the period. Potentially dilutive securities consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon
exercise of stock options (using the treasury stock method). Potentially dilutive securities are excluded from the computation if their effect is anti-dilutive.

Options to purchase 278,000 shares in 2007, 8,000 shares in 2006 and 54,000 shares in 2005 were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share because the respective exercise prices per share of those
options were greater than the average market price of our shares of common stock during each of those periods.

12. Financial
Instruments. Financial instruments that potentially subject us to concentration of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. The amounts reported for cash, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and accrued
liabilities approximate the fair value due to their short maturities. As of December 31, 2007, the carrying value of long-term debt approximates its fair value, based on the current rates offered to us for debt of the same remaining maturities.

13. Accounts Receivable and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts. The majority of our accounts receivable are due from RV and boat
dealers, supply stores and service centers. Credit is extended to a customer based on evaluation of its financial condition and, generally, collateral is not required. We maintain allowances for doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from
the inability of customers to make required payments on their accounts. We regularly evaluate the adequacy of the allowance for doubtful accounts. We estimate potential losses on our accounts receivable on the basis of the aging of accounts
receivable balances, a review of significant past due accounts, and our historical write-off experience, net of recoveries. If the financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, whether due to deteriorating economic conditions generally
or otherwise, adversely affecting their ability to make payments, we would make additional provisions to increase the allowance for doubtful accounts.

14. Stock Based Compensation. We adopted the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement (SFAS) 123R, Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R) effective on
January 1, 2006 (the Adoption Date). This statement establishes standards in accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. The statement focuses primarily on accounting for
transactions in which an entity obtains employee services for share-based payments, such as the options issued under the Companys Stock Incentive Plans. SFAS 123R provides for, and we elected to adopt, the modified prospective method for
applying SFAS 123R. Under that method compensation cost is recognized on or after the Adoption Date for the fair value of (i) all share based award grants made on or after such date and (ii) the portion of pre-existing awards for
which the requisite service had not been rendered as of the Adoption Date, in each case based on the grant-date fair value of those awards calculated under SFAS 123 for pro forma disclosures. Our stock option compensation expense was $214,000
and $132,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Prior to January 1 2006, we had elected to follow
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees (APB 25), and related interpretations in accounting for stock based compensation. Accordingly, no compensation expense was recognized
in the statement of earnings included in these consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2005 relating to stock-based awards to employees granted prior to January 1, 2006 when the exercise price of those awards was
equal to or greater than the quoted market price on the date of the grant.

15. Warranty Costs. We generally do not independently warrant the products that we distribute. Instead, the manufacturers of the products that we distribute warrant the products and allow us to return defective
products, including those that have been returned to us by our customers. However, in the last quarter of 2005, we began selling a line of portable and standby generators under a product supply arrangement which obligates us to provide warranty
services for these products and to share the costs of providing those services with the manufacturer. The warranty period for these products is for 24 months following the sale of the product to a retail customer. In 2005, we did not have sufficient
experience with these products to be able to predict, with accuracy, the warranty costs that we might incur under this arrangement and, as a result, we had not yet established any reserves for such costs or for possible warranty claims that might
have been made with respect to these products. In the fourth quarter of 2006, we had sufficient history on the type of warranty claims and the cost of those claims to reasonably estimate future claims on these products. Accordingly, we established a
warranty reserve for these products of $553,000 and $418,000 at December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The actual amounts that we may become obligated to pay with respect to warranty claims on these products may differ from the amounts that
were set aside in those reserves, because the reserves established on the basis not only of experience, but also on estimates that we have made regarding expected warranty returns and costs in the future.

We do maintain insurance to protect us against product liability claims relating to all of the products we distribute and sell, including the generator
products.

16. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS No. 157). SFAS No. 157 provides a new single authoritative
definition of fair value and provides enhanced guidance for measuring the fair value of assets and liabilities and requires additional disclosures related to the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, the information
used to measure fair value, and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings. SFAS No. 157 was to become effective for us as of January 1, 2008. However, at the February 6, 2008 meeting, the FASB agreed to defer for one year the
effective date of SFAS No 157 for all non-financial assets and non-financial liabilities, except those that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (that is, at least annually).

In February 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 159, The Fair Value Option of Financial Assets and
Liabilities (SFAS 159). SFAS 159 provides entities with the option to report selected financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Business entities adopting SFAS 159 will report unrealized gains and losses in
earnings at each subsequent reporting date on items for which fair value option has been elected. SFAS 159 established presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different
measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. SFAS 159 requires additional information that will help investors and other financial statements users to understand the effect of an entitys choice to use fair value on
its earnings. SFAS 159 will become effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, with earlier adoption permitted. We are currently assessing the impact that the adoption of SFAS 159 may have on our consolidated
financial position, results of operation and cash flows in fiscal 2008.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 141 (Revised 2007) (SFAS No. 141R), Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141(R) will change accounting for business combinations. Under SFAS No. 141(R), an acquiring entity will be required to recognize
all the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a transaction at the acquisition-date fair value with limited exceptions. SFAS No. 141(R) also will change the accounting treatment and disclosures for certain specific items in a business
combination. SFAS No. 141(R) applies prospectively to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 31, 2008. SFAS No. 141(R) will
have an impact on accounting for business combinations once adopted, but the effect is dependent upon acquisitions effectuated after its effective date.

In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160 (SFAS No. 160), Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements  An Amendment of ARB
No. 51. SFAS No. 160 establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for fiscal years beginning on or after
December 15, 2008. The Company is currently assessing the impact that the adoption of SFAS NO. 160 may have on our consolidated financial statements.

Subsequent to 2008, annual maturities of long-term obligations are $135,000 in 2009 and
$24,530,000 in 2010.

Secured Notes Payable to Bank

The secured notes payable to bank evidence borrowings under a revolving credit facility which are collateralized by substantially all of our assets. The expiration date on the revolving credit facility is May 2010, at
which time all then-outstanding borrowings must be repaid. The Company may borrow up to the lesser of (i) $50,000,000 with a seasonal reduction to $40,000,000 each year, or (ii) an amount equal to 80% of the value of its eligible accounts
receivable and between 50% and 55% of the value of its eligible inventory. Interest is payable at the banks prime rate (7.25% at December 31, 2007) or, at the Companys option but subject to certain limitations, borrowings will bear
interest at the banks LIBOR rate (4.90% at December 31, 2007) plus 1.25%.

The loan agreement with the bank contains certain
restrictive covenants. The Company was in compliance with all the covenants as of December 31, 2007.

NOTE D: COMMITMENTS

Operating Leases. The Company leases its corporate offices, warehouse facilities, and some of its office equipment. These leases are classified as
operating leases as they do not meet the capitalization criteria of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13, Accounting for Leases. The office and warehouse leases expire over the next ten years.

Rent expense charged to operations amounted to $4,445,000 in 2007, $4,035,000 in 2006, and
$3,685,000 in 2005.

Legal Proceedings. The Company is subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary
course of business, including product liability and personal injury and intellectual property litigation. While the outcome of currently pending litigation is currently not determinable, based on the information currently available to us, we do not
expect that any liabilities or costs that might be incurred to resolve these matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

NOTE E: STOCK OPTIONS AND STOCK PURCHASE PLANS

We adopted the provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards Board Statement (SFAS) 123R, Share-Based Payment (SFAS 123R) effective on January 1, 2006 (the Adoption Date). This statement establishes standards in accounting for
transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods or services. The statement focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services for share-based payments, such as the options issued
under the Companys Stock Incentive Plans. SFAS 123R provides for, and we elected to adopt, the modified prospective method for applying SFAS 123R. Under that method compensation cost is recognized on or after the Adoption Date for
the fair value of (i) all share based award grants made on or after such date and (ii) the portion of pre-existing awards for which the requisite service had not been rendered as of the Adoption Date, in each case based on the grant-date
fair value of those awards calculated under SFAS 123 for pro forma disclosures. Our stock option compensation expense was $214,000 and $132,000 for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

Prior to January 1 2006, we had elected to follow Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees
(APB 25), and related interpretations in accounting for stock based compensation. Accordingly, no compensation expense was recognized in the statement of earnings included in these consolidated financial statements for the year
ended December 31, 2005 relating to stock-based awards to employees granted prior to January 1, 2006 when the exercise price of those awards was equal to or greater than the quoted market price on the date of the grant.

For purposes of SFAS 123R, the fair value of each option was estimated as of the date of
grant using a binomial model. This model incorporates certain assumptions, including a risk-free market interest rate, expected dividend yield of the underlying common stock, expected option life and expected volatility in the market value of the
underlying common stock.

We used the following assumptions in estimating the fair value of the options issued in the periods indicated
below:

|Expected lives           |  | 1 year                  |   |  | 1 year  |   |  | 1 year  |  

Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Companys common stock.
The risk free interest rate is based upon market yields for United States Treasury debt securities. The expected dividend yield is based upon the Companys current dividend policy and the fair market value of the Companys shares at
December 31 of each of the years in the table presented above. Expected lives are based on several factors including the average holding period of outstanding options, their remaining terms and the cycle of our long range business plan.

nonvested options granted under the Companys option plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.8 years.

Stock Option and Incentive Plans. In 2005, our Board of Directors adopted and our stockholders approved the 2005 Stock Incentive Plan (the 2005 Plan), which authorizes the granting of options and
rights to purchase restricted stock to directors, officers and other key employees, that entitle them to purchase shares of our common stock. A total of 350,000 shares were authorized for issuance under the 2005 Plan. As of December 31, 2007,
options to purchase a total of 230,000 shares of our common stock were outstanding under the 2005 Plan. We also have in effect a 1999 Stock Incentive Plan (the 1999 Plan), which authorizes the issuance of options to purchase up to
300,000 shares of our common stock. Options to purchase a total of 190,667 shares of our common stock granted under the 1999 Plan were outstanding at December 31, 2007. The Company had in effect a 1993 Stock Option Plan which authorized the
issuance of options to purchase up to 500,000 shares of common stock (the 1993 Plan). The 1993 Plan has expired and options may no longer be granted under that Plan. However, options to purchase a total of 67,666 shares of our common
stock remained outstanding under the 1993 Plan as of December 31, 2007.

A summary of the Companys stock option plans is
presented below:

THE COAST DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

Employee Stock Purchase Plan. In 1997 the Company adopted an Employee Stock Purchase Plan to encourage employees to purchase shares of our common stock and, thereby, become stockholders of the Company. A total
of 400,000 shares of the Companys common stock were reserved for issuance under this Plan. The Plan was made available to all full time employees (other than any employees that own 5% or more of our outstanding shares of common stock) and
participation was voluntary. Employees who desired to participate could elect to do so at the beginning of an annual purchase period, at which time they would be required to authorize payment for the shares they desired to purchase under
the Plan by payroll deductions to be made ratably over the annual purchase period. The price of the shares was determined at the end of the purchase period, at which time the participating employees had the option of having their withholdings
applied to purchase shares under the Plan or withdraw from the Plan, in which case their accumulated payroll deductions were refunded. The price at which shares were sold under the plan was 85% of the market price of the Companys shares,
either at the beginning of the purchase period, or at the end of the purchase period, whichever price is lower. The Plan expired in 2007 and no additional shares may be sold under the Plan.

The weighted average per share fair values of the awards under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan were $1.13, $2.17, and $2.94 for the years ended
December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005, respectively.

NOTE F: EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

The Company has a profit sharing plan in which all full-time employees are eligible to participate beginning the first quarter following the completion of
three months of employment with the Company or any of its subsidiaries. This plan allows participants to make pretax contributions and apply for and secure loans from their account. The plan permits the Company to make discretionary contributions to
be determined annually by the Companys Board of Directors or Compensation Committee. The Company contributed nothing to the plan in 2007, $65,000 to the plan in 2006 and $85,000 to the plan in 2005.

THE COAST DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)

The total of the operating loss carryforwards available for state income tax purposes at December 31, 2007 was $1,015,000. The earliest carryforwards begin to expire in 2012. At December 31, 2007, foreign
tax credit carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes totaled $66,000, which expire in 2015.

In June 2006, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (FIN 48). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for uncertainty in income taxes recognized in an
enterprises financial statements in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109 Accounting for Income Taxes (FAS 109). This interpretation prescribes a recognition threshold and
measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition of tax benefits, classification on the balance sheet,
interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure, and transition. The Company adopted FIN 48 effective January 1, 2007. In accordance with FIN 48, paragraph 19, the Company has decided to classify interest and
penalties as a component of tax expense. The Company recognized no material adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits as a result of the implementation of FIN 48. At the adoption date of January 1, 2007, the Company had
$159,000 of unrecognized tax benefits. To the extent these unrecognized tax benefits are ultimately recognized, they will impact the Companys effective tax rate.

At December, 31, 2007 the Company had $179,000 of unrecognized tax benefits of which $20,000 impacted the effective tax rate. Interest and penalties were $61,000 as of December 31, 2007, of which $44,000 was
included in the balance sheet and $17,000 was included as an expense in the current year income statement as unrecognized tax benefits.

The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the US federal jurisdiction, various states, and foreign jurisdictions. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to tax examinations by taxing authorities for
years before 2004. The Company does not anticipate total unrecognized tax benefits will change significantly during the year ending December 31, 2008 due to the expiration of statutes of limitations.

A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

ITEM 9. CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURES

As
previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 11, 2006, on that date the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors notified Grant Thornton, LLP (Grant Thornton ), that the Company was dismissing Grant Thornton
as its independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

During the period from January 1, 2005 to the date of
that dismissal: (i) there had been no disagreements between us and Grant Thornton on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures which, if not resolved to Grant
Thorntons satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its reports and (ii) there were no reportable events as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The audit report of Grant Thornton on our financial statements for fiscal year ended December 31, 2005 contained no adverse opinion
or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.

We provided Grant
Thornton with a copy of the disclosure we included in our Current Report on Form 8-K reporting its dismissal and, at our request Grant Thornton furnished us with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agreed
with the statements that we made in that Current Report. A copy of Grant Thorntons letter was attached to that Report as Exhibit 16.1.

As also previously reported, in a Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 21, 2006, that we had filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Audit Committee of the Companys Board of Directors approved the appointment
and engagement of Burr, Pilger & Mayer LLP (BPM) to serve as the Companys independent registered public accounting firm.

During the period from January 1, 2005 to September 21, 2006 (the date BPM was engaged), neither the Company, nor anyone acting on its behalf, consulted with Burr Pilger regarding (i) the application of accounting
principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Companys financial statements, or (ii) any of the matters or events set forth in Item 304(a)(2)(ii) of
Regulation SK.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedure

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) are designed to
provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under that Act (the Exchange Act), such as this Annual Report on Form 10-K, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified
in the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our disclosure controls and procedures also are designed to ensure that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.

Our management, under the supervision and with the
participation of our Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures in effect as of December 31, 2007. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and
Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of December 31, 2007, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that material information, relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries,
required to be included in our Exchange Act reports, including this Annual Report on Form 10K, is made known to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, on a timely basis.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2007, that has materially
affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Managements Report on
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

Management of The Coast Distribution System, Inc. is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Our internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting
includes those written policies and procedures that:



| |  |  | pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provide reasonable assurance that our receipts and expenditures are being made only in accordance with authorization of our management and board of directors; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of assets that could have a material effect on
our consolidated financial statements.
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Internal control over financial reporting includes the controls themselves,
monitoring and internal auditing practices and actions taken to correct deficiencies as identified.

Because of its inherent limitations,
internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions
or because the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Managements Assessment and Determination

Our management assessed the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007,
based on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control  Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. Managements
assessment included an evaluation of the design and the testing of the operational effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting. Management reviewed the results of its assessment with the Audit Committee of our Board
of Directors.

Based on this assessment, management determined that The Coast Distribution System, Inc. maintained effective internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007.
